Re: My Apple Remote no longer works

This posting is older than 6 months and can contain outdated information.
hello, sorry... I was away from my computer for about a week and didn't have a chance to fix this. 
I went through the steps that you have listed and ran into some difficulty. I entered the command into Terminal and got nothing in return. It did not display what you showed. 
I also went into the System Profiler and checked USB under the Hardware tab, but it does not show anything about the IR Receiver.

I found the AppleIRController.plist file, but I did not delete it. I searched for AppleIRController.kext driver and did not find it.

I don't know if there is much more that you can do, but you did help enough. I might take my computer in to the Apple store to get it checked. I don't want to go as far as making a fresh install just yet.

Thanks again.
